Port forwarding not working
So I have tried multiple times using the port forwarding feature on the website, and it has not worked. I have the port forward set up, have already gave windows defender permissions for said port, but it is still not working. I don't know why it is like this, and would like some help.

You might identify the equipment you have, share screenshots of your configuration and describe what you're trying to accomplish with the port forwarding.

If you are using an Xfi gateway, have you tried using the Xfi app instead of the website ?;

I had the same problem and figured out that the port forward won't work from a computer that is connected to my home network. For example, the port forward doesn't work if I use my laptop connected to my home wifi and I try to create an RDP session using my public facing IP address. Try testing the port forward from an external network. Hopefully this helps.
